Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd.,
DERBY.

Dear Mr. Anderson,

At the end of last week I had a conversation with Mr. John Morris, of the S.U. Carburetter Co. Ltd., Birmingham, who is developing a fuel injection pump and paying particular attention to the problem of the injection of Safety Fuels. I took the liberty of mentioning in very general terms your interest in this subject, and I believe that he intends to get in touch with you with a view to having a discussion.

Hoping to see you in London shortly,

Yours sincerely,

Kenneth Hunt
